the

Industrial and technical espionage, and civil-military cooperation

The Main objective of the Chinese strategy of the counterweight was to as quickly as possible to catch up with the United States in the technological race. This formed the basis of all Chinese activities in this strategic industrial and technical espionage.

Combat training of Chinese soldiers

As was stated in a recent report on industrial espionage of China, this Chinese strategy is opposed to "conscious activity with the state support aimed at reducing the cost of research, bridge the cultural gap and transition to higher technological levels through the use of creative abilities of other peoples." Senior officials in the US government recently announced that the Chinese have uncovered a network of the us defense company and obtained sensitive data by means of conducting underwater combat actions of the U.S. Navy. This is one of the last examples of one of the most common, successful and ambitious programs of industrial and technological espionage in history.

This spying is almost entirely dependent on the process defined in Chinese documents, the term "civil-military fusion" (deep integration of the civilian and military sectors), according to which Chinese officials are working to simplify the legal and illegal transfer of technology for military purposes due to scientific and commercial cooperation with the United States and other technologically advanced countries of the West. According to a statement by the US state Department since 2009, this activity was intensified and at present "a unified strategy at national level for a full "merger" Chinese military and civilian industrial complexes."

Chinese leaders are openly voicing the objectives of this exercise. About Chinese civil-military merger of the Department of state recently officially said: "in Determining the start of this ambitious process factor was acute awareness by the Chinese that the complete enslavement of their country in the 19th century was the result of military-economic backwardness, including technological and doctrinal terms that are not allowed to benefit from the so-called "revolutions in the military sphere", which dominated and determined military action throughout the 20th century... China is resolute and will not allow for the lag in following the revolutions in the military sphere, which, according to Chinese officials happen".

In Other words, the Chinese government considers industrial and technical espionage and military-civil fusion as the main drivers of the sharp start of the Chinese technical progress without investing in costly research and development of new technologies. Studies have shown that the transition from prototype to deployment of the finished system takes about the same time as in China, and the United States. However, in the case of similar systems in industrial and technical espionage helped the Chinese military to reduce time and costs when moving from concept to research and development of prototypes. As a result of illegal transfer of modern technology, reverse engineering and civil-military fusion allowed the Chinese to deploy advanced technical capabilities much faster than U.S. intelligence agencies initially estimated. And, therefore, hardly a coincidence is that structurally, the latest front-line fighters of the Chinese army is very much like the American F-22 Raptor or F-35 Lightning II, or that some of her drones are an exact copy of the Predator and Reaper drones. The result is due to the theft and use American and Western technical secrets, they were able to align the technological Playground for American forces in several key military capabilities in less than two decades, by the standards of long-term strategic rivalry in time of peace - a moment.

The Illegal technology transfer and civil-military integration has enabled China to grow rapidly in terms of technology, including, particularly, the creation of fifth-generation aircraft, such as, this Chengdu J-20

Military action to destroy systems

The Second activity in the Chinese strategy of the counterweight allows to direct the activity of the Chinese in the field of espionage on specific tasks and helps to determine the priorities of the Chinese army in investments. This is stated in the concept of the Chinese army in the high-tech military action. There is "traditional" modern military operations are described as linear, with a clear front line. Likewise, the Soviet Union planned to conduct their operations against NATO, attacking and trying to break through and strike at the vulnerable rear areas of the enemy. But in the high-tech military action attacks are not confined to geographical borders; militaryoperations are conducted simultaneously in space, on water, land, air, cyberspace and in the electromagnetic field. In this mnogoserijnom military space military action less like a battle to destroy each other opposing military forces and more on the battle of opposing "systems management" what Chinese strategists call "confrontation of systems". A "military action to destroy the system" reflect the theory of the victory of the Chinese army on such a high-tech opponent like the United States.

The American system of government or military networks have four interrelated array. Mnogokratnyi multi-sensor array oversees military space from the seabed to outer space; an array of operational management, communication and collection of information (C3I) "interprets" the results of the observations and data received from the sensor array, determines the actions needed to achieve further the purposes of this campaign, and develops and selects a sequence of actions and sends the orders to the array of impacts that applies kinetic and akineticalkie funds in accordance with instructions from the array C3I. A fourth array of support and recovery supports all three of the aforementioned array and supports their performance during combat operations. Working together, the arrays touch, C3I and impact make up a "chain of destruction" for a given theater of military operations with the aim of finding, capturing and neutralizing targets. How could you expect to observe the structure of the Chinese army during the operation "desert Storm" and once again in the skies over Serbia and Kosovo, the us military gather their various expeditionary combat network and Executive components in the area of operations and tie them with advanced broadband communication systems and data architecture with striking elements and components of the logistics, gathered on the nearby bases. To make this concept more efficient and economical, the U.S. forces concentrated elements of its battle networks. Such a centralized structure, although quite effective, consisted of many vulnerable single points, each of which has targeted China with its advanced features.

The Chinese realized that in order to have at least some kind of hope to cope with the American invasion, especially in the period when the Chinese army is without a doubt technologically behind, they will need to paralyze the work of the American military network. This is the main goal of military action to destroy the system - to bring down the operating system, command system, weapon system, support system of the enemy, etc., as well as internal communication within each of these systems. The destruction of these relations leads to the fact that the enemy instead of concerted military action began to separate, disconnected operations, thus reducing their overall combat capabilities.

In the case that this campaign to destroy will be able to provide the planned strategy impact on the U.S. military network, the Chinese can expect to achieve information superiority, which they consider "the most important operational method of modern wars" and the main prerequisite for the achievement of dominance and superiority "in the air at sea and on land". This is a key and indispensable condition is so important that Chinese military theorists are adding to their models of operational networks fifth network information warfare. The purpose of this network is consistent with the General theory of war for the destruction of the systems is to achieve and maintain information superiority of its operating system while simultaneously finding ways of degradation or destruction of operational combat systems of the enemy in the information field of battle. The system of information confrontation consists of two major subsystems: an information offensive system and defensive system information.

Thanks to its Central position in the strategic thinking of the Chinese army, the war on the systemic destruction became a dominant impulse along with solutions for the restructuring of the Chinese armed forces and priorities for its modernization. This explains the large Chinese investments in counter-fighting capabilities of the network and means of conducting "information warfare" - the use of means of electronic warfare, cyber attacks, attacks on computer networks, information operations and deception to destroy the integrity of any American military network. For example, the Chinese have developed a type of electronic war, in order to threaten every American system and the data transmission channel; can be assumed. they have also developed tools for cyber attacks. On the basis of reliance by the USA on support from space its expeditionary military networks, the Chinese army concentrated on space company to "dazzle and defeat the enemy" within the main military actions to destroy systems. This helps to explain the major investments of China in some anti-space weapons, including missiles in direct launch, directed energy weapons and orbital weapons. The emphasis on the war for the destruction of the systems also helps to understand the reasons behind the creation of the Chinese army of new Forces, the Strategic Support of fundamental structure, which has the task of deeper integration possibilities of war in space, incyberspace and electronic war in operatic the Chinese army.

Effectively attack first

The Chinese believe that the main operational approach in the confrontation of the systems should be far precision strike guided munitions of different environments which will deprive the enemy of ability to create a balanced defense. The third area of focus of the Chinese strategy of the counterweight involves the development of doctrine, systems, platforms and weapons to the Chinese army could effectively attack any opponent first. "Attack effectively (maximally concentrated means) and do it first (due to the longer range weapons, the benefits in the maneuver or coordinated action based on good intelligence)" is a cornerstone of Chinese military thought and warfare with guided weapons. And it is the second dominant pulse along with the decisions of the Chinese army restructuring and modernization priorities.

Total focus on effective forward attack explains the obsession of the Chinese army seeking to possess weapons, which "replays" of its opponents - that is, has a greater range. If we assume that two opposing forces have equal intelligence capabilities, the side with the longer range weapons should be able to focus most of their fire on the units of the other party and thus exert stronger impact. And if one side gets the advantage in intelligence, then the effect will be even more powerful.

Therefore there is nothing surprising in the fact that in Chinese strategy counterbalance the emphasis is on weapons, which in General has a greater effective range than its American counterparts. For example, the standard American Harpoon anti-ship missile has a maximum range of about 75 nautical miles. Its Chinese counterpart, the missile YJ-18 can hit targets at ranges up to 290 nautical miles, almost four times more. And if the Chinese army can beat American weapons range, it aims to reach at least parity. In a duel of guided munitions she hopes for equal competition, the Americans can not agree. As a result, the situation currently unfolding very rapidly. Air combat USA has long had the advantage in range in a dogfight, being armed with the missile of class "air-air" AMRAAM (Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile) with a range of 100 nautical miles. Currently, however, new Chinese missile of class "air-air" PL-15 caught up with the American range. Even this is enough to make nervous combat pilots of the U.S. air force. being brought up with the confidence that they can safely run at the enemy missiles, without fear of retaliatory launch. And now they need a missile that "would surpass the PL-15".

The Chinese emphasis on effective anticipatory attack also explains why the Chinese army chose what was the term "the strategy of missile strike," which is based on ballistic and cruise missiles, long-range in contrast to air-based from the concept of the American long-range strike. The Chinese are carefully taught the use of United States aircraft in operation "desert Storm" in Bosnia and Kosovo. As a result, the Chinese have chosen not to create a symmetrical, first-class air force, and the creation of a class of missile troops with an emphasis on mobile ballistic missiles from mobile launchers. From the Chinese perspective this approach to the creation of the structure has a rationale:

- Units of ballistic missiles are less expensive to the organization, preparation and operation than a top-notch force is the main U.S. mechanism causing long-range shots.

- the decision to adopt a ballistic missile based on the so-called competitive asymmetry. Until recently, the United States was bound by Treaty intermediate and short range limits the range of land-based missiles five hundred kilometers. Once not being a party to the Treaty, China was able to develop and deploy large number of ground-based missiles without any impose on ourselves restrictions in range.

- In a competition to increase in the range, as a rule, it is easier to increase the missile's range at the expense of making a larger case capable of taking more fuel than to increase (no refueling) range manned aircraft.

- Easier and faster to organize a massive missile strikes than air strikes, the preparation of which also much more visible, which is the basis of the Chinese doctrine of effective pre-emptive fire.

Mobile installation of ballistic missiles much more difficult to find and destroyunlike large stationary bases, necessary to ensure continued air operations.

China's Commitment to its strategy of a missile strike was also confirmed at the end of 2015, when it was formed missile troops - the fourth kind of troops in the Chinese army, equal in status to the army, Navy and air force. Missile troops of the PLA was formed from the 2nd artillery corps, which since 1985 was responsible for ground-based defense against Intercontinental nuclear missiles. It is important that created rocket forces are responsible for the application of nuclear and conventional attacks on ground and sea targets at medium ranges in areas of vital interests of China. Missile program of the Chinese army is the most active in the world, it currently, several types of cruise and ballistic missiles of any army, which in its capabilities is not inferior to the most advanced systems of any army in the world. In addition, missile troops constantly improve their combat skills. According to the former commander of us forces in the Pacific, China is launching more than 100 missiles per year with the educational and research objectives.

Focus on the use of ballistic missiles during the application of effective pre-emptive strike is also supported by another consideration. When you use unmanaged funds, most of which are expected to miss their targets, it is necessary to rely on massed volleys in order to ensure even a single hit. In contrast, when using the managed systems, you must shoot only sufficient to saturate the enemy's defense number, and every single missile broke through the frontier defenses, are likely to hit the target. Thus, the protection against any attacks, guided munitions imposes on the defense a lot of responsibility and it becomes even more protection from weapons, which is specially created to break the defense or which are inherently difficult to bring down. Generally speaking, air defense experts believe that ballistic missiles are harder to hit than planes and cruise missiles. This is particularly true in the case with the advanced options with multiple maneuvering warheads, with decoys and jammers.

The Chinese focus on weapons that can with high probability to break the defensive borders of the us forces, expanding their arsenals, not only through ballistic missiles, but due to the supersonic missiles of all types. This explains the purchases by China of Russian weapons, for example, supersonic "Moskit" (SS-N-22 Sunburn) and the more modern anti-ship cruise missiles Kalibr (SS-N-27B Sizzler), both of which were designed specifically to break of the latest combat system Aegis of the U.S. Navy. These missiles of the Soviet era was followed by a Han Chinese supersonic anti-ship cruise missiles, long-range YJ-12 in the options of air and ship launch. These supersonic missiles and other systems of this type are more difficult to intercept because they integrate elements that enhance their chances of breaking the defense in the terminal phase of the trajectory, for example, the active maneuvering in flight, and advanced homing millimeter range, which the American system of jamming can not be deceived. Supersonic anti-ship missiles are used in combination with the world's first anti-ship ballistic missile DF-21D is China's development, nicknamed the "aircraft carrier killer", which is a range of almost 1000 miles and maneuvering warhead. This ballistic missile will soon join model DF-26 with an even longer range, capable of reaching us bases on GUAM and threaten American aircraft carriers located between the first and second chains of Islands.

The under Secretary of defense for R & d Mike Griffin in early 2018, said in Congress that the Chinese add a hypersonic and a hypersonic glide vehicles to its already impressive Arsenal of ballistic and cruise missiles. Hypersonic weapon flies through the "middle space", not very well closed, the current American sensors or actuators. In addition, they can maneuver at speeds more than five times the speed of sound and the last part of the trajectory to make a steep dive from different heights. All these features make hypersonic weapons are very difficult target for us military networks.

The Possession of weapons that range exceeds the range of weapons the opponent has a good chance to break through his defense, provides a potentially winning position in the high-tech combat-intensive duels guided weapons. Such attacks are especially attractive in the fight against technologically moreadvanced opponents, such as the United States. Therefore, sudden shocks play the main role in the doctrine of the Chinese army. And whether a preemptive first strike or successive strikes, the Chinese military doctrine always preaches a powerful, concentrated blows. Chinese officers strongly criticized Iraq after operation "desert Storm" shooting "missiles like the Scud pepper out of the pepper". On the contrary, they point to the need for "concentrated use advanced weapons to conduct a focused, ultra-intense, unexpected attacks in a limited space-time volume" and on such key targets, such as command centers, communications centers and data centers. Indeed, military action to destroy systems and effective attack ahead of the curve in the Chinese strategy of the counterweight, in fact, represent two sides of the same coin.

Given the US leadership in military operations with the use of guided munitions in the late 90-ies, the initial focus on war's destruction (the destruction of) systems had an obvious sense from the point of view of China. If successful, this war would not allow the U.S. military network to effectively use its advantages of high precision long shot. However, the Chinese have always sought to defeat the Americans in a massive strike in a controlled weapon. Accordingly, despite the fact that the emphasis is on the destruction of military networks in the United States to achieve decisive information superiority, the Chinese army hopes to defeat the opponent through punches guided weapons. In fact, these two approaches mutually reinforce each other, since high-precision strikes on key targets us military networks will only accelerate their destruction.

The Chinese missile strategy has a negative impact on the us military in peacetime. First, an effective strategy "financial burden" is forcing the United States to develop and deploy extremely expensive missile defense system to protect its military bases, both terrestrial and marine. Second, it forces the US military to think "too defensive" manner, focusing on the protection of the advanced forces and means of the Chinese guided weapons, instead of having to stick with a more aggressive mindset, which focused largely on the use of existing enemy vulnerabilities.
